Grab some newspaper to cover your table and a smock or old shirt to cover the kids and let’s have some fun finger painting! I have fond memories of finger painting when I was little . 😉 I found this inexpensive set of finger paints at Walmart for $4.34.
Yep, they are washable!
There are 6 colors in the set.
I also found some white construction paper for $1.47. (Why do packs of construction paper never have white in them?!)
Don’t forget your most important utensil – damp paper towels for cleaning up! LOL
Newspaper, smock or old clothes, paint and paper…looks like we’re ready to go!
Select your first color…I decided to start with green. There is another kind of plastic lid inside the first lid.
Flower stems and leaves are the beginning of my painting. Just trying something super simple that kids can do. 😉 You need a very small amount of paint on your finger at a time!
Now for some flower petals…
Let’s add a yellow dot to the center of the flowers, a sun in the top corner and some blue streaks in the sky.
Of course, you and the kids can paint anything you want! No brushes needed! You can put a small amount of each color on a styrofoam plate that the kids can dip their finger onto while they are painting. You never know, this might be the beginning work of a future great artist! Have fun!
